Every day, the team at Aircraft For Sale chooses an airplane that catches our attention because it is unique, a good deal, or has other qualities we find interesting. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.
Today’s Top Pick is a 2015 Beechcraft Bonanza G36.
Finding a G36 that has not spent its life as a high-utilization charter or flight school platform is the goal of every serious Beechcraft buyer. This particular airframe is a standout specimen with only 420 hours since new. It is a single-owner aircraft with a pedigree that is increasingly hard to find, having undergone a recent, thorough maintenance reset that included new cams and lifters in December 2024 to ensure it remains in peak mechanical health.
The performance profile of this Bonanza is bolstered by a significant reboot. While the airframe is a 2015, the engine is practically a newcomer. In 2021, the owner opted for a factory-new Continental IO-550-B, which shows only 196 hours. This 300 hp powerplant, combined with a three-blade, constant-speed prop, allows the G36 to settle into a 170-knot cruise with the rock-solid handling that has made the Bonanza a favorite of cross-country pilots for decades.
The G36 is famous for its club seating configuration, and this interior remains in like-new condition. The cabin features the upgraded climate control system—a must-have for those operating in the Southeast where this aircraft is located—and an executive writing desk that turns the rear of the plane into a mobile office. Whether you are hauling a family of five or four business partners, the G36 offers a level of fit and finish that justifies its reputation.
From the pilot’s perspective, the G1000 integrated flight deck removes the mental fatigue of legacy IFR flying. This panel is fully loaded with the Garmin GFC 700 autopilot, Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT), and GTS-820 Active Traffic system. It also features the GTX-345R transponder for full ADS-B compliance and Garmin SafeTaxi.

For the buyer looking to step up from a Cessna 182 or a Mooney, the G36 provides a seamless transition into the world of high-performance, glass-cockpit operations.
Listed at $799,000, this Bonanza G36 is a turnkey investment in one of the most respected names in aviation history. As a unique bonus, the sale includes “Bonanza School” to help the new owner master the aircraft’s systems and performance.
